Project description

This project aims at recognizing the patterns in the voices of great vocalists and singers and digitally impose those features on other songs or vocal art pieces,this is possible since every singer more or less has its own unique pitch and frequency, thus producing a different spectrum of frequencies which distinguishes his/her voice.

This would mean that we would be able to relive the magical voices of singers of the past. It would involve recognizing the various aspects of human voice viz,frequency,pitch and resonance patterns.This would also mean that singers would no longer need to sing their songs , they would just have to provide the characteristic features of their voice.
